Changing the upload class...

Howdy folks,

Been quite a few years since I've touched PHP, let alone CI.

I'm at a loss here.

When a file <image> is uploaded, I want to create a hash based on the time, filename and filesize. Once this is done, I want the upload path set to (example):

HASH = aefbe89530ecdae7496cefa4915307ef, Path is...
/a/ef/aef/aefbe89530ecdae7496cefa4915307ef.jpg

But I just can't wrap my head around how to change the upload_path after I've initialized the Upload class. Will I have to actually modify the Upload class itself to do what I want?

Or can I *reinit* the upload class with the new path somehow?

Why don't you set a temporary upload path, then once the upload succeeds, create your hash, then use PHP's rename() (and probably mkdir()) to move the file to its permanent location.

Didn't even think of that. Good idea, danke
